Thank You 2023
Thank you for another AWESOME year at the Club! We're excited to celebrate so many successes in 2023, including the inaugural Bright Futures Awards Ceremony and the opening of a brand new club site at Tahoe Valley Elementary.
The Importance of Play
Norway has the highest literacy rate in the world, and 90% of Norwegians speak a second language (primarily English). And yet, Norwegian children don't start formal education until they are over the age of 7. Instead, they spend their pre-school and kindergarten years engaging in active play. Norway recognizes that social and emotional health and physical wellbeing is essential to child development; including their academic achievement.
Why Can’t You Just Come Into Club?
We have received some questions from parents recently asking 'why do I have to show my ID at pick-up'? 'Why can't I just come into Club and help my child gather their things'? 'Why do I have to tell you if someone else is picking up my child'?
